About

Alex Recepcion, Counselor in Chula Vista's Eastlake district practices as a LifeStance Health clinician from Suite 275 at 2300 Boswell Road in the 91914 ZIP code. Substance addiction and co-occurring disorder caseloads benefit from care continuity with in-home support agencies such as ComForCare Home Care, which provides structured routine support and medication-adherence monitoring for clients in early recovery. Academic preparation includes a bachelor's degree from the University of California, Riverside, and a master's of science from the University of Phoenix, with prior clinical work at one of the county's largest youth service organizations. Evidence-based treatment relies on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for identifying maladaptive thought patterns and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) for building mindfulness, emotional regulation, and distress tolerance skills. Motor-function and trauma-recovery goals are reinforced through coordination with rehabilitation providers including Performance Plus Physical Therapy in the Otay Ranch corridor, integrating movement-based approaches with psychotherapeutic progress. The most intensive caseloads involve dual-diagnosis adults presenting with PTSD alongside active substance use patterns, requiring concurrent CBT trauma processing and DBT crisis-intervention protocols.
